03:38a damn about the esplanade in fact if i never hear the word esplanade ever again it will be too
03:44soon well that's what the referendum is about please do not talk to me like i get my news from
03:51social media your referendum has absolutely nothing to do with a sidewalk then what do you think it's
03:59about i think it's about getting rid of an extremely dangerous criminal element in poor
04:05charles sunny corinthos has wormed his way into the graces of far too many important people some of
04:12whom i actually like and my only regret is that it's taken this long to come up with the perfect
04:17way to shut him down well i couldn't agree more but i do have just one question are you willing to
04:27put your money where your mouth is so the garbage disposal is working but a couple of the outlets
04:35are not i just need to access the panel do you know where the panel is i don't even know my own zip
04:40code yet all right i'll find it uh good to see you you too dante

05:30forget my home is also your home always i won't thank you love you so much i love you
05:40okay and i've got to run see ya
05:58okay outlets are working oh don't tell me you picked this out no i definitely did not that's
06:05all tracy i was just the messenger should be a card in there
06:14love your step wants
06:17well new house new vase old but functioning garbage disposal looks like you're back on your feet
06:24not quite but soon even though we can't have children of our own chase and i would like to
06:35start a family very much so we've decided to explore adoption oh it meant so much to brooklyn that her
06:42baby go to a loving home we thought adoption would be a nice way to pay it forward
06:47i think that's an amazing idea and i'm all for it and i'll do whatever i can to help great you can
06:54help right now right now okay oh well adoption becoming adoptive parents is a really complicated
07:02process and yeah it's like they want the parents to be trustworthy and loving and a good match for the
07:07kids i mean crazy right let's just say that the adoption process is complicated but there is one
07:13thing that we do know for sure well one thing at a time is the way to get through the process
07:19we want to use the same agency that placed my baby
07:27i'm not going to go after willow with the knife well that's good to know but i am going to go after
07:30her okay all right then let's let's hear it let's hear it so michael served willow with divorce
07:36papers when she was shacking up with drew in dc but there was no follow-through because of the
07:40fire and michael had to go to germany right and while michael has been in germany willow has been
07:45able to live out her romantic delusional fantasy with drew with no consequences whatsoever like
07:51losing her children okay what did you do i told diane to start prepping for michael's custody battle
07:59is she gonna inform willow well she will once there's a date but diane thinks that's far off
08:05which is fine with me okay what if michael's not ready well if we have to postpone it we will
08:10but we are gonna be ready to go once michael's feet hit the ground here in port charles and i can't
08:15wait to see the look on willow's face and michael is gonna walk into that courtroom loaded with
08:20tons of evidence that proves that willow is an unfit mother okay i just don't think this is a good
08:24idea we don't even know what michael wants with michael in the state he's in i don't think taking
08:30extreme action is in our best interests we talked about this it's not extreme i mean you're still
08:37michael's medical proxy we are not using that to leverage anyone again for any reason i'm not saying
08:42that we should no that's that's not what i'm saying like considering your position nobody is
08:47filling you in on michael's medical condition carly does update me whenever i ask michael's doing a lot
08:55better you sure about that because all we have is carly's word that michael's doing better what if he's
09:02what if he's getting worse and then what if god forbid something happens to you
09:07i really don't want to talk about this neither do i but we do have to consider
09:10all the possible outcomes do we have to do it right this second i'm just saying what if michael
09:17succumbs to his injuries and then you become incapacitated it has to be super clear in the
09:24eyes of the law that those kids don't end up with carly i appreciate you doing the right thing by
09:29trying to legally protect my children i will do anything but before this goes any further there is
09:34still one person i need to face my husband
09:41you and grandma handled everything so i never even knew the name of the agency maybe you told
09:45me and i blocked it out either way i i don't remember now it was a long time ago but knowing
09:51you and grandma you probably vetted the agency within an inch of its life just yesterday you
09:56mentioned how grateful you were to the nuns that they would have chosen a family with care yeah the
10:00sisters were wonderful which is why we thought it would be a great place to start looking for a
10:04child of our own so what was the name what's this i hear from a child when i see your daughter with
10:15that man i am confounded by the faith that she has in him you and me both but that seems to be a
10:22pattern with drew no matter how many people he alienates there still seems to be plenty of others
10:28that fall right under his spell because that man is a master manipulator i have never seen anything
10:34like it somehow he uses half truths and subtle pressure to convince people to do what he wants
10:41and then he makes it seem like it was their idea he does that with willow every time he talks with her
10:46he has convinced her that it's the two of them against the world and she never questions him
10:52despite the fact that everyone has warned her about how manipulative he is which is insane
10:57because he's not even subtle about it he tried to manipulate curtis into giving him controlling
11:01interest of aurora again of course he did that's when i saw who drew really was
11:09and it changed my perception of him for good you know he's never going to show willow any other side
11:14of him besides hero drew she doesn't really know who he is if only she knew what he was capable of
11:21what he's done nina if you know that drew is hiding something from willow the simplest way to
11:28drive them apart is to tell her my son wants his children back yes when you were in germany
11:35did you talk to michael did he say anything to you no jason it was too early in the treatment for
11:41that okay what about on the phone i mean he's tired and he's in a lot of pain and i don't want to push
11:46him so there's a lot of hi bye i love yous what about you did you talk to him no i did we managed to
11:52have two conversations that lasted about i don't know three minutes but all i could all i could get
11:57from him is that he wants his kids to be okay that's what i'm doing i'm trying to make sure his kids are
12:02okay you don't know what michael means by okay and neither do i the only two people can fix this
12:07are willow and michael well that would be nice but willow is too enthralled with drew
12:12i don't even think she remembers she has a husband anymore she remembers willow is going to germany to
12:17see michael you're gonna go visit michael that's the plan
12:28you don't approve no no it's not that it's um
12:33i'm surprised i should have gone to see michael myself a long time ago because like you said we
12:38don't know anything for sure about michael's current condition that's true i did say that
12:42i need to see him for myself so i'm going to bodden bodden i gotta say that's uh that's a bold move
12:50it's necessary if carly is lying about michael's progress then we will know what legal action to take
12:57well i'm glad that you're thinking about this strategically regardless the sooner i know about
13:02michael's current condition the better and if carly is telling the truth and michael isn't proving then
13:05i think that he and i will be able to have a productive conversation about the kids i don't know i
13:10mean he filed for divorce he demanded soul custody do you really think that he's going to want to talk
13:15when michael served me those papers in dc that hurt because it was petty and cruel
13:22but michael isn't not the michael i know well then we know two very different michaels that's
13:29between the two of you just like this is between michael and me because of the accident you mean
13:36the assassination attempt on sunny michael hasn't even had the chance to explain his actions to me
13:43i only have carly's take on it i need to hear it from him i know you think you do but you might
13:50not like what he's got to say maybe not michael and i made a lot of mistakes and there's a reason
13:58our marriage didn't work but we did care for each other and even when things were off the one thing we
14:03could always agree on was the kids you mean the kids that he's trying to take away from you which also
14:10is not like him even that horrible night with the video when everything fell apart michael stood
14:16up to carly and he let me take wiley and amelia with me because he knew the children belonged with me
14:22you never mentioned wanting to go see michael before so so what changed i spoke with the one
14:29person who knows michael better than anyone i talked to jason well i can't thank you enough
14:37no thanks needed just results well i am confident that the referendum will go our way but it is uh
14:46not a slam dunk are you asking me for more money i will always take it but what i'm saying is
14:56sunny corinthos has some powerful friends that are perfectly fine with the status quo
15:01i am not fine with the status quo and i am not the only one i hope that's true but if you do align
15:08yourself with us um you will be going up against sunny's powerful friends such as our illustrious mayor
15:20ezra making amends to your constituents whose families you tried to have disinterred
15:26actually the councilman has promised me to make every effort he will make it up to me absolutely
15:33uh in the meantime madam mayor you should know we've got some internal polling on the referendum
15:39then i look forward to reading about it in an email i'll just bottom line it for you sunny corinthos's
15:45days on the piers numbered then they're numbered now if you'll excuse us please
15:51you are an astute politician laura given the way the wind is blowing it might be wise for you to
16:00jump on board with our position
16:03ezra unlike you i don't choose my position based on the polls i'm always doing what's best for poor
16:11charles councilman you have your money go put it to good use preferably as far away from us as you
16:17can get very well good day ladies you gave him money you know you can't trust that guy don't trust him
16:33he's loathsome but i think you need to listen to him
16:39i've been looking for a new job to go with the new place and i think i found something perfect oh
16:48that's great uh what do you want to do well i have been reaching out to my old contacts at the invader
16:56and i've been pitching myself as a long-form journalist wow you are a fantastic reporter
17:02where do you want to work i'm gonna start with freelance so i'm casting a wide net but i had a
17:09really great call with the managing editor at the landview banner and she said she'll be calling me
17:14soon that's good except you know that kind of sounds like what they say when i know when they're
17:20gonna let you down easy but i just i feel really good about this one and if it works out i get to make
17:28my own hours which will leave me plenty of time to be with the kids well they'll love that especially
17:34rocco is everything okay something going on with him yeah no no he's good he hasn't said anything to
17:39me i just uh feel like maybe he could use his mom right about now you told willow to go see michael
17:48in germany i did why were you even talking to her willow brought the kids over to see monica and she
17:56tracked me down she wanted me to stop you from taking her kids just like i stopped tracy you're
18:02gonna stop no i'm gonna tell you what i told her only willow and michael can figure out this custody
18:07was their marriage and their marriage fell apart it fell apart because willow cheated they still need
18:12to have a conversation face to face you know usually i'm the one that has really bad ideas but this one
18:17of yours is off the charts michael is in no condition to figure things out with willow why not
18:23because he's still in love with her how did you end up having a conversation with jason
18:30i took the kids over to see monica and while we were there i ran into jason
18:36we talked and what did my brother have to say he asked me why i hadn't reached out to michael yet
18:46and i told him the truth that i hadn't reached out to him because i was afraid
18:50of what he might say or do and jason told me that michael would be willing to hear me out
18:54jason is only looking out for michael's best interest you cannot trust him about anything
18:59to do with this i get why you would question his motives but it doesn't change the fact that he's
19:04right no jason is not i think he is and i cannot make decisions for my children based on fear
19:10i have to face him and try to find some common ground for their sake unless there's a good reason
19:17i shouldn't go is there something i'm not seeing
19:25i i can't believe i'm saying this but i think that jason might have a point
19:30you're okay with me going of course i'm okay with you going i'm in favor of anything that brings our
19:38family peace i wish that i could expose drew's sins to hell but i i have no tangible proof of one
19:49specific thing and if i openly challenge drew then it will just push the two of them closer together
19:55i hear you drew's not only incredibly manipulative but he's also impossible to call out and when you
20:01try it backfires he's still talking about curtis i worry about curtis but he can hold his own and then
20:08some i'm worried about trina's friend um kai taylor kai oh he's drew's spokesperson for his pediatric
20:18sports initiative didn't he play football for pcu he was football at pcu until he got hurt but now
20:28drew's trying to convince him to play again and all he has to do is undergo this incredibly risky surgery
20:34and if kai plays football again drew's the hero because he saved a young man's future and
20:41if it doesn't work kai could end up paralyzed and trina she's terrified
20:47she and i both tried to talk to kai but kai has bought into drew's act and god forbid something
20:53does happen to him drew's just gonna say that he never promised him anything just like he said that
20:58he never promised curtis the ceo position at aurora because he can weasel himself out of anything
21:04he lures people into these situations he lures them in until they're trapped
21:09and once they are he convinces them that they did it to themselves
21:12then portia we're just going to have to set a trap of our own
21:21can't believe that you would even let boyle sit down at your table let alone ask me to work with him
21:28broken clock is right twice a day he panders to donors he better and polls are you so eager to
21:38get back at sonny you'd be willing to work with that guy not get back at get rid of sonny corinthos
21:43has been a blight on my family for 30 years he and carly stole michael from aj and then sonny murdered
21:50aj now granted there was not love love lost between me and aj but he was alan and monica's son
21:56and it was murder okay i can see why your family can't well i guess forgive is not the right word is
22:04it and i understand how my position conflict with sonny puts us at odds and that is not at all my
22:14intention is that why you wanted to meet with me today because you wanted to talk about sonny
22:20i wanted to give you a heads up before i made my position public and i wanted to apologize for the
22:28timing i don't care about the timing but i do care that you're making a terrible mistake by aligning
22:35yourself with that man boyle is willing to go head to head with sonny corinthos i have no choice
22:44but to support him is that seat taken how do we pull this off i don't know that yet
22:56oh god councilman boyle is here you may know him as drew's lackey he's close to drew and does
23:04his dirty work for him maybe we could use that somehow what is that beautiful woman doing with that troll
23:12i've seen her before several times
23:20are you at all concerned about separating danny and rocco yeah i don't know maybe a little not
23:26really though i mean they're still going to be living together 50 of the time at the quarter mains
23:29right i'd be even more worried about danny without rocco's good influence really danny's the wild child
23:36yeah no he's good he's fine i mean he's actually he's actually good for rocco you know he helps
23:42him loosen up a little bit we don't want him too loose no we don't either way i don't think we have
23:50to worry about him getting into as much trouble as i did when i was his age
23:58i clearly have not gotten back my pre-coma coordination yet that's okay
24:06it's been a long day why don't we take a break
24:08adopt well that's wonderful that's what so too yeah well every day i thank god that i got the
24:23chance to adopt leo and i consider him one of the great joys and gifts of my life and leo's a great
24:30kid i mean i hope we're even half as lucky well the child you adopt they're the happy ones and the
24:37lucky ones from personal experience this can be a very complicated process so i think i speak for
24:42your mother when i say that we'll do everything we can to help oh yeah oh yeah absolutely i um
24:50oh uh this is my girl melanie and uh uh she's the lighting director i want to lock her down for the
24:56nurses wall i'll be right it's okay well thank you in advance ned yeah just so you know dad we're
25:03still thinking through all the possibilities yeah we don't know if we want to adopt an infant or an
25:08older child i don't think i'm saying this right look adoption is an incredibly sensitive consideration
25:14i don't want you to think like we're picking out a dog or something no no not at all no i think that's
25:21the proper mindset you know you're keeping an open mind because you never know who your child will be
25:30until the day you meet them
25:36ma it's me ma bingo can wait brooklyn was just asking me what agency we used to place her baby
25:44what am i supposed to tell her because clearly there was no agency
25:55oh wow these glasses are from our first trip to disney world with rocco i know i opened a box it
26:02was the first glasses i found it's okay to use them right of course they're glasses they're supposed to
26:08be used oh remember how excited rocco was to meet goofy yeah i do they always say don't meet your heroes
26:16but uh goofy was the exception i can't believe these glasses are still around well i'm not sure of it
26:26when you got sick i uh i packed up your house and tried to make sure i got everything you thought
26:32would be important i always hoped we'd get to use these again one day
26:43it's the landia banner
26:50oh sorry about that uh what did i miss not a thing and now it's my turn to apologize i have to get to
26:56a meeting to finalize monica's agreement with the port charles land trust oh thank god no more
27:02bulldozers no more true by any name absolutely it's not going to take too long and uh we can
27:09talk about this more tonight thanks again ned hopefully that will be sooner rather than later
27:14because i can't wait to meet my grandchild
27:16it feels like there isn't anything i can say to make you change your mind here there isn't and i
27:30i'm sorry that this is gonna create friction between us okay and i understand this puts you in a bad
27:39position but i also hope that you understand the wisdom of ridding poor charles
27:45details of a mafia boss you think that by driving sunny carinthos out of town you're going to rid
27:52poor charles of organized crime you're not you're not somebody else is going to slip right in behind
27:58him and you know who i think that is i think it's jens sidwell tell me what you know about that guy
28:06i'm not a fan unfortunately deception needs him and his rare mineral he's not just
28:14an importer he is a dangerous criminal and i believe he wants to take sunny's place in poor
28:23charles my point is that by driving sunny out you could be inviting somebody much worse in
28:32if willow sees michael she is going to trade on every affection that he still has to get what she
28:36wants it doesn't matter it's michael's decision michael isn't in any condition to make a decision he's
28:42not even capable to have a full conversation and and willow she's not the woman that michael remembers
28:49she is the person that is going to put all of her selfish desires ahead of everything else the willow
28:54michael loved is gone okay if that's true then michael's gonna have to see it for himself that's my
28:59point michael's not gonna see it willow's gonna show up she's gonna cry and she's gonna whine she's
29:04gonna do whatever she can to get what she wants jason okay she can try but you gotta have some faith and
29:09trust that your son is going to see through that and figure it out maybe if michael were a hundred
29:14percent but he's not but he's still michael and he might be the only one who can get willow to
29:19realize that she's making terrible choices for their kids thank you for being so supportive of course
29:28willow i really do only want what's best for you in that case i am going to book my ticket right now
29:34i want to talk to michael as soon as possible no let me do it i'll get us i'll get us two first
29:37class tickets i'll find us like a really nice place to stay i mean i could take a couple days to
29:41go to germany we can take the train from baden-baden to berlin we can maybe as amazing as that sounds
29:47i think i need to go on my own oh oh you don't want me to come maybe if it were a holiday or a long
29:55weekend but i'm going to see my husband in a burn clinic right of course on top of that if michael found out
30:03that you came to germany with me he could take that the wrong way and he wouldn't exactly be
30:07wrong for now i need to focus on the kids and doing what's best for them okay if that's what you
30:16think you need to do i am behind you 100 percent i'm sorry i don't mean to interrupt but i wanted to
30:30introduce myself to you i'm nina reeves editor of crimson i'm sorry i'm off thank you but i'm
30:36talking to your friend and your name is call me jacinda jacinda are you represented by an agency
30:43i'm assuming you're a model no agency well i'm a freelancer really well in that case let me give
30:50you my card yeah we gotta get going check course call me well things with drew must not be that
31:06urgent if you got time to scout models for crimson that woman is no model
31:13no sunny has a reputation for keeping certain elements out of poor charles namely drugs and he's
31:22done it he has and i know he is the devil we know but i am willing to roll the dice on a brand new
31:30devil if i can't sway you about sunny corinthos can i at least talk you out of aligning yourself with
31:37ezra boyle that man has asked for my resignation oh my god is that what is that what you want if you
31:47want me to stick down no of course not but that's why you have to distance yourself from sunny don't
31:55let that man take you down with him thank you so much miss lord
